That's exactly the sort of thing I (and Mike) have been looking for. Do
you have exact titles and info on obtaining such books?

Especially now since Conrail cars, even with "NYC" reporting marks, still
have lettering indicating not only the Conrail class designation, but often
the original reporting marks and serial number. This amount of info is rare,
but unfortunately it may soon get painted over and lost forever because of
the merger.

The question has come up: Are they all text, or are there also diagrams
and photos?
